The seller is CEO and owner Torbjørn Lind, who will remain responsible for the car warranty business in Norway.

The brand Car Protect will remain, and be developed with Solid Försäkring as owner, within car warranties on the Norwegian market.
"With Solid Försäkring as the owner, we have an even greater opportunity to drive further growth in the Norwegian car warranty market.
